Join us for a virtual cook along March 10th! Bucatini alla Carbonara!

Where our ingredients come from matter!

Working with and raising nutrient-rich food is our passion but we can’t grow it all. Therefore, we are committed to partnering with others to use locally grown and eco-friendly products. We support other farmers who grow food that not only nourishes our bodies, but also our planet.

Our Farm in Lyndonville
farm grown eggplants over a hillside. travel vermont

We raise a ever growing flock 700 heritage breed chickens that produce rich eggs for our pastas. Our ladies are raised on rich pasture goodness with a diverse diet of organic (soy-free) feed.

We grow heirloom vegetable on 3/4 of an acre following Italian traditions, with minimal and no-till practices, and beyond organic regenerative farming. We believe that the healthier our soil is, the more delicious our vegetables are! 

 

bucatini pasta in package with good food award

Pasta = EGGS + Wheat

We use a blend of 100% Vermont grown, freshly milled wheat. Our two Vermont partnered farmers take great pride in growing sustainable, delicious, and easy to digest wheat. We take our rich farm grown pasture rasied eggs, mix them with wheat and our farm well water to make delicious fresh pasta. This blend allows us to create nutrient-rich pastas. If our pastas could talk, they would have a thick Italian accent fluent in Vermont agriculture.
